An important introducing remark: generally I avoid all, what could
be invasive against visitors of my homepage. And therefore I don't use
any of the possibilities to gain further information about visitors by
the below used CGI calls; only the votes are counted anonymously; nothing more. You can be sure, that this is unlike many other
sites using CGI --- and you can't deactivate this, contrary to the
potential or real invasive elements like Java(Script), Cookies and so on (the
reason for the technically interested: the call is executed on the server,
and not like the others by your browser, therefore you have no influence on it)
. At principal you can avoid activating cgi actions in links and forms, but this
requires careful surfing...

This poll is a twofold one: you may participate in one or both of them.
